Neuropeptides are protein-like signalling molecules that regulate many important physiological processes and behaviours

Venoms: predatory, defensive, and a treatment for chronic pain

Identifying new methods to diagnose, prevent and treat infections before they become life-threatening

Our vision is to transform global industries with solar-driven biotechnologies that secure planetary sustainability and resilience.

Our researchers work in chemistry and biology to better understand the molecular mechanisms of life, ageing, disease and death.

We are experts in the detection, isolation, identification and evaluation of biologically active small molecules from Nature (known as natural products).
